My daughter just about to finish her 6th grade year here and I couldn't be anymorepleased with this school. The principal is Laura Springer, and she is so down to earth and caring. She knows all of the students by their names and is very easy to contact when needed. I grew up in the Irving school

I do not know the individual situations of the parents that gave a negative review, but every school is going to have some problems. My daughter is half hispanic and hasn't had any racial issues or trouble making friends. It is quite a diverse environment tbh. I have not heard anything about drugs! The teachers are top quality and care aboit the students. I am looking forward to the next two years to come and give this school an A+! Read less

I will not recommend this school to anyone. Teachers are inefficient and expect students to self-study. The new principal has poor leadership skills and is no better than the previous principal. We are not going to continue in this school next year. Do not move into this school district.

My child is in 8th grade and this has been one of the best experiences for her. The leadership at this school is second to none.

I am a current 8th grader at the school. I think that it is a good school, especially since we got a new principal. Together they make East a great place to be and here they care and ask for your opinions, and listen. There are some problems that are caused by the students. And what school doesn't have

It also depends on the classes, if you sign up for Pre-ap or GT they will expect more of you than the students who attend regular classes. Personally I am signed up for the hardest classes and I find it easy. But CMSE is a place of wonderful oppurtunties and great people. Read less

I spoke with a school administrator who said every school has a drug problem. Doesn't that sound a little like a drug dealer saying

Parents, please proceed with caution. The leadership is slipping. I have known about Coppell schools for a long time and moved to this area just for the school district. Well, I had the worst experience of my life. They push these kids to their limits and there are safety issues as well. Beware!
